  • How long should you grieve? How do you live with the inconclusions caused by death, the conversations that were not had; the could have, should have? Does grief negate faith? Pastor Mueni answers these questions as she shares her experience with losing loved ones. In this story she reminds us that we are living on limited bundles and we should live fully and intentionally.

    I have had my most painful time with grief and I totally relate to this November 4th 2022 I lost my dear dad and on January 17th 2023 I lost my dear only sister. It's been difficult for me and this losses have put me down . I have so many questions. I believe one day I will come through this. God's Grace has been there for me.

    R- Reimagine your life afresh.

    How do we live with the inconclusion? How long should one grief? How long does the effect of grief impact our lifeline? I have had my most painful points with grief and I totally relate to this...I agree our lives are in the hands of a loving God. He provides us the unconditional love and grace we need to navigate everything!

    • @mueniwambua2354

      There is no time line to grieve because how long will your loved one be dead ... you will miss them as long as you are alive. Grief impacts us and shapes us in many ways and the effects are lifelong. We live with the inconclusion in making peace with knowing that we will never quite get the answers that will "make sense" .....

    It is fortunate when you have grief not complicated by other terrible circumstances.. Someone died and you are heartbroken. Others like us faced hostility and rejection from our mates families and friends and crippling financial burdens, not to mention having to deal with young children. That still persist to date. But the promises of the Bible are true in that All things work for good for they that love the Lord and whom He has called according to His purpose. It shall be well with all of us who are grieving.

    Me and grief are sworn enemies. I chose to ignore it completely, and refused to pay attention to it even when it was standing in front of me screaming in my face. Grief on the other hand completely refused to ignore me or release me till I have allowed it to sit me down and face it squarely. I still hate it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Thank you for sharing your grief story Mueni. It will three years this July since I lost my mum. That is the most difficult thing that I have ever gone through in my life. I lost it! I became numb... I cried loads, I shut people out... the 'I' part of Air was the hardest! Guilt creeped in, the things I had planned to do for mum but never did. The wasted time... I am glad that God helped me through it! I am reinventing everyday and it is bearable now. I am glad that I didn't get stuck in there. We mourn because we love.

    Huweeh, Passy Mueni Wambua, your compassionate and insightful reflections during the talk illuminated the depth of your connection with our sister Alice and underscored the invaluable role you played as her friend and therapist during her journey. Your words eloquently captured the essence of those meaningful conversations, offering comfort, solace, and wisdom to those who are currently grappling with similar experiences. It is truly an honor for our family to have Alice's memory and legacy celebrated in such a meaningful way. Your willingness to share her story with grace, humor, empathy, and authenticity reflects the profound impact she had on those fortunate enough to have known her. Thank you for journeying with the our family on this one. Continue resting Easy Alice!
